CWN Editor's Note: Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, O.F.M., the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, yesterday inaugurated Within Your Gates in conjunction with the University of Notre Dame.
The Patriarchate said that the interdisciplinary research initiative will “bring together scholars and practitioners from different faith traditions and disciplines to engage with Jerusalem’s universal mission and its significance not only for those who reside within the Holy Land but for all humanity.”
“The mission of earthly Jerusalem is to become the image and mirror of heavenly Jerusalem, a prophecy and promise of that universal reconciliation and peace which God desires for the whole human family,” said Cardinal Pizzaballa. “It is to this mission that we must return.”
